[QUOTE="RCMSTER, post: 2458946, member: 54689"] So, I just got my rifle back from the gunsmith where I had a new Hart barrel put on, and some work done to the receiver. Caliber is 25-06. I’m just a little disappointed in the fact that with 116 grain hammers, I can only get to 3.050 OAL before I’m into the lands, but not sure I’m concerned with that yet. First 20 rounds thru the barrel have yielded pretty mediocre results as far as accuracy, so I guess my question is this. Would it be normal for a rifle to shoot more accurately after say, a hundred rounds are put through it, or not so much. I haven’t done any load work-up yet. I figure I need to get some rounds thru it before I go there, but just curious as to what you really good shooters’ opinions are as to accuracy and a new barrel. [/QUOTE]
